Feasibility Investigation on the Effects of a 6‐Week Whole‐Body Static Stretching Program in Active Adults With Type 1 Diabetes on Blood Glucose and Insulin Sensitivity

Lifestyle Medicine, Volume 7, Issue 4, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Exercise is a cornerstone non‐pharmacological strategy for glucose management in people with Type 1 diabetes (T1D). However, barriers such as fear of hypoglycemia and time constraints may limit participation in conventional exercise programs. Static stretching (SS) represents a low‐intensity, accessible modality that requires little

A Novel De Novo MTM1 Insertion Frameshift Variant Causes X‐Linked Myotubular Myopathy in a Chinese Female

Molecular Genetics &Genomic Medicine, Volume 14, Issue 10, October 2026.
A 24‐year‐old heterozygous woman presented with lifelong hypotonia and slowly progressive, asymmetric axial and limb‐girdle weakness with facial/ocular involvement and restrictive ventilatory impairment (FVC 53.12% predicted). Multimodal evaluation (EMG, muscle MRI, and whole‐exome sequencing [WES]) identified a de novo MTM1 frameshift variant ...

Mapping the Evidence on Midline Catheter Tip Location, Confirmation Methods and Associated Characteristics: A Scoping Review

Nursing Open, Volume 13, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Midline catheters (MCs) are increasingly utilized as an alternative to peripheral and central venous catheters. However, the lack of standardized protocols for tip location and confirmation methods remains a significant barrier to patient safety and clinical decision‐making.

Hoffmann's two‐toed sloth II: Muscle architectural properties in the thoracic limb of Choloepus (Pilosa: Xenarthra)

Journal of Anatomy, Volume 249, Issue 4, Page 737-758, October 2026.
Two‐toed sloths use their thoracic limbs for more frequent and greater suspensory support than three‐toed sloths and have muscle architectural properties consistent with stability of the pectoral girdle, enhanced flexor force/torque applied at the shoulder and elbow joints, and grip on the support as indicated by their myology. Abstract Two‐toed sloths

Hoffmann's two‐toed sloth I: Complete myology in the thoracic limb of Choloepus (Pilosa: Xenarthra)

Journal of Anatomy, Volume 249, Issue 4, Page 714-736, October 2026.
Two‐toed sloths use their thoracic limbs for more frequent and prolonged suspensory support than three‐toed sloths and accordingly demonstrate myological traits consistent with stability of the pectoral girdle, enhanced flexor force/torque applied at the elbow joint, and grip on the support.

Postcranial anatomy of the Miocene hippopotamoids of Toros‐Menalla, Chad

Journal of Anatomy, Volume 249, Issue 4, Page 924-949, October 2026.
We establish a framework for the identification of postcranial remains in hippopotamoids by describing and comparing for the first time two late Miocene hippopotamoids from Toros‐Menalla, Chad (Hexaprotodon garyam, an early hippopotamid, and Libycosaurus bahri, the last African anthracothere) with the common hippopotamus.

Microanatomical features of bovids long bones: What are the effects of mass and habitat?

Journal of Anatomy, Volume 249, Issue 4, Page 899-923, October 2026.
This study provides the first qualitative and quantitative exploration of inter‐bones and interspecific variations in the microanatomy of long bones in bovids in response to significant changes in body mass and habitat. Abstract Bovids are a valuable group for studying limb long bone adaptations due to differences in size and the environment that the ...
